I thought I would mention how fortunate I believe we are to be up from the river. I was just talking with a colleague in Watseka, Illinois. Yes, that Watseka, where half the town is under 5 feet of water from the Iroquois river.
A lot is lost there, but fortunately, their lives and home seem to be good. Their office has a lot of damage, and he is trying to get contractors to get to working on repairs.
It shows how fortunate we are. I am very appreciative of all that we have.
I did learn some interesting facts from a research paper from John's Hopkins on the glucosamine and condroitins. In this article the researchers are able to realize very effective help for human arthritic patients.
However in a recent study of off the shelf products, they showed that many who claimed to have glucosamine in the pills, actually did not. I don't have the web URL here at home, it's at work. I'll get that on the next Blog.
btw- the answer to the previous mensa question:
$1.00 wonkles cost $0.01 and winkles cost $0.02. - ever notice how with keyboards, there is no 'cents' sign?
